Purchasing your own home is a significant event for every family. Opening a new door, the couple as if begins a new life, filled with happiness and harmony. And, of course, I really want to share my joy with friends. And if you are one of those lucky ones who were invited to such an important celebration, do not forget about the housewarming gift. And since this holiday does not happen every year, you need to carefully consider what to buy for friends who have finally completed the long-awaited repairs and moved to live in their own apartment.
Obviously, a housewarming gift is not bought simply because you need to buy it. In order to really please the new settlers, you first need to evaluate the situation of their new housing. Unobtrusively ask for a short visit or unexpectedly stop by for a cup of tea - a short time will be enough to see what style the interior of the apartment is made in, what color scheme prevails in the design, which, in your opinion, is not enough. Your housewarming gift should be appropriate and practical, so take a look around the new apartment and go shopping.
Practical
As a rule, in the process of moving to a new place of residence, many little things are lost that are sometimes so necessary. These include kitchen towels, a garbage bucket, a corkscrew, baking dishes, a festive tablecloth and other things that you usually forget to buy. These items will especially please women. Pliers or a set of tools can act as a men's souvenir - believe me, they will be useful to the owner more than once.
Cool
If you think moving is another reason to have fun, then housewarming gifts should also be appropriate. Cool clocks, funny aprons, a huge broom or a “crooked” mirror will become a cause for laughter and will cheer everyone up.
Romantic
Many couples have been waiting for the move for years, and therefore a new apartment for them is a long-awaited place of solitude and family life. To such friends, a housewarming gift should hint that they should not waste their time in vain. It can be scented candles, a disc with romantic music, a beautiful bedding set or some kind of erotic toy.
Healthy
You can consider gifts such as a humidifier or an ionizer, a water filter or a climate station. New settlers will certainly appreciate your concern for their health.
Hand made
If, after going shopping, you still haven’t found anything suitable, then make a housewarming gift with your own hands. You can beautifully decorate an ordinary glass vase. Or make a key holder from an old wooden box. Or build an unusual hanger in the hallway. There are a lot of options for homemade gifts, the main thing is to have a desire and time in order to make them.
It is believed that when going for a housewarming party, it is strictly forbidden to give knives. Even if it is a very expensive set, it is better to refuse such a gift, since all piercing and cutting objects, according to belief, lead to misfortunes.
